Explanation of the printout on the previous page
The heading PRINT OUT gives information about the VERSION of the printer's
firmware.
The next two headings are followed by two columns of standard settings:
S INTERFACE - for communication between the computer operating system
and the printer it is necessary to have the same communication settings or
features. The standard settings are:
S Buffer
8 Kbyte
S Word Length
S I/F Type
Shared
S Baud Rate
9600 Bit/s
S Parity Bit
S Protocol
S Auto-Status
S ADJUSTMENT - all parameters are for adjustment of the printer and the
paper (see also the following pages).
The last part of the printout is a list with all MACRO settings. In this case
MACRO 4 is marked with an asterisk (') which identifies it as the active macro.
If you do not save new settings, they are lost when you turn the printer OFF and
ON.
If you make modifications via the application in the active macro you will find the
new settings under the heading CURRENT SETTINGS.
